Plus, other weekly specials, Happy Hour and more at welcoming Fitzroy local The Rochey
Cost of living may still be biting, but The Rochey bites back with a weekly lineup that blends proper pub comfort food, serious value and inviting pub setting. Plus, the pub serves up an outstanding – possibly the best in Melbourne – Steak Night on Thursdays and Sunday Roast!
Steak Night isn’t new, but Steak Night done right is rare. Every Thursday night, the fires at The Rochey are stoked and a succulent $22 porterhouse (250g) is delivered, served with chips, salad and house sauces. Included sauces are gravy, and mushroom x peppercorn. And, during the three-hour happy hour, a glass of wine can be added for $8 – that’s just $30 for a steak dinner with wine!
Sundays are for roasts and The Rochey’s Sunday Roast offers great value and quality produce with a half chicken, cauliflower or rotating special with Yorkshire pudding and all the trimmings – no fancy deconstructed roast here, just a proper, delicious pub roast for just $25!
Happy Hour runs 4pm-7pm daily (all day Mondays), ensures all patrons are kept refreshed with $8 house wines, $9 pints and $14 favourite cocktails. Plus, there’s late night Cocktail Hour Wednesday to Saturdays!
But what sets The Rochey apart isn’t just the pricing, it’s the feel – with a cosy front bar, open fireplaces, pool tables, a leafy beer garden for long sessions, and footy on in the background. It’s the kind of pub guests wander into for one and end up staying until close. Friday and Saturday nights turn things up, with music, cocktails and a crowd that brings a great energy.
